What is Minnesota's stance on marijuana and DWI?

Minnesota's stance on marijuana and DWI is that driving under the influence of marijuana is also subject to DWI charges. This means that operating a vehicle while impaired by marijuana can lead to the same legal consequences as driving under the influence of alcohol. In Minnesota, any substance that impairs a driver's ability to operate a vehicle safely—whether that substance is alcohol, marijuana, or another drug—can result in DWI (Driving While Impaired) charges.

This policy reflects a broader commitment to road safety and acknowledges that marijuana can have impairing effects similar to those of alcohol. It is important for drivers to understand that being impaired by any substance can lead to dangerous driving conditions and legal repercussions.
